Document Summary
How people imagined their space in the larger cosmos and how they saw the cosmos structured. Two key groups of indigenous peoples who lived around the great lakes. Panther is viewed in pro le, head looking directly at us (eye contact) (common) It gives gift to people but also can sink your boat. Important to maintain relationship with this spirit because of safe passage. Human gure with same kinda outline showing a form of communication. Middle world is rep in the bag, how it was used (medicine bag) Grandfathers as relations non of bags rep thunder the same way, private meaning number of lines number of smaller gures around markings. Thunderbirds keep underworld spirits buried under world kept on opposite sides. Also separated by coloured lines on the side. Di erence between panther make it unique (on same bag in this case) Not made unless dream or image of supernaturals that are favoured and connected in some way.
